    The U.S. 20/23 entrance to southbound I-75 reopened about 5:30 p.m., Monday, after crews cleaned up a spill from an overturned tractor-trailer, Perrysburg police said.

    The truck was hauling about 33,000 pounds of steel forgings that spilled onto the ramp when it rolled onto its side early Monday afternoon, police said.

    Authorities said the driver of the semi was taken to St. Luke’s but additional information on the driver’s identification and injuries was unavailable.
